Climax, Ga.
Ty Ty, Ga.
Dimebox, Tex.
Yeehaw Junction, Fla.
Ninety-Six, S.C. (The only place with a major-league ballplayer whose uniform number was his hometown.)
North, S.C. (I find this amusing in the manner of Abbott and Costello.)
Bug Tussle, Okla. (or is it Arkansas? Wherever the Beverly Hillbillies came from, and it is a real place.)

I'm not quite sure why the Welsh name Bala Cynwyd would be considered "weird"; it's just a combination of two Welsh towns, one having to do with a lake, the other with a saint.
Now Blue Ball and Intercourse, PA...those are a bit odd.
